USA in New York: Counseling

Program Overview & Course Information
This blended section of CED 566: Multicultural Counseling will begin on May 29, 2018. It will consist of a three credit hour course that meets throughout the summer and culminates in a five day diversity institute in New York. During the Diversity institute students will be immersed for 5 days in the diversity of New York City in an experiential learning opportunity which will broaden students’ ability to work with culturally and ethnically diverse student populations. Each day, students will engage in discussions, interactions, and reflections with cultural and educational leaders and New York City school counselors who represent the many various populations of New York City as well as explore cultural centers, museums and the neighborhoods of New York City. Students will acquire new strategies to collaborate with culturally diverse students and their families or caregivers to develop systemic approaches to equalize the educational experiences for every student.
